Residual Stress Field Team
Hill Engineering is committed to providing high-quality residual stress measurement data to its customers, both in our laboratory and on-site. Our Residual Stress Field Team is equipped with the same knowledge and expertise as our laboratory team to meet the challenge of performing residual stress measurements in the field.
Our Residual Stress Field Team has the experience necessary to tailor each measurement approach to meet the unique needs of the customer and bring our world-class residual stress measurement capabilities to the place it matters most – the operational environment. Challenging measurement access, complex geometry, and applications requiring rapid turn time are just a few situations where our team and equipment excel, allowing us to assess both near-surface and bulk residual stress in components that are delicate, large, or otherwise unable to be sent to our laboratory for in-house testing.
From a quality control perspective, measurements performed in the field allow customers to get a detailed glimpse of their manufacturing process, as measurements can be carried out shortly before or after a critical step, such as heat treatment, all without having the component leaving the manufacturing line, saving time for the customer.
On-site measurements and services that are available through our field team include:
The Hill Engineering Residual Stress Field Team, with its ability to perform on-site residual stress measurements, is just one of the ways we offer flexible, precise, and high-quality residual stress testing to our customers. Their mobility, coupled with advanced technology, ensures that the science of engineering is not confined to laboratories but can thrive in real-world environments where innovation truly takes flight.
If you have any questions about the capabilities of our Residual Stress Field Team and how it can help your project, please contact us.
